do you believe in the 'curse' of the white lighter (for those of you that know). its said that that white lighters tend to not only fuck up your high but as well as your day. anyone truly have the 'curse' upon them after using a white lighter.

around here people believe that with yellow lighters i try not to believe it but for some reason every time someone pulls out a yellow lighter to light the bowl/blunt something bad ends up happening.ive had someone use a yellow lighter to hit a bong and right after he took his hit the bong broke. same thing with buying blunts before you get your bud.

its nothing more then a myth. if you expect somthing bad to happen you will cause it to happen. i don't care what color a lighter is i just use it. i have used white lighters for years. when you look for good things to happen they will. next you will tell me that if you have a green lighter it means that your horney. don't have any hornes on my head.

i agree with the dude and the yellow lighter.. same " myth" around my way.. i refuse to buy a yellow lighter.. whenever i go into a wawa or seven eleven and ask for a lighter the cashier will ask what colour, so i say anything but yellow.. i would take a pink with purple poka dots over a yellow any day of the week..
isn't it something like jimmy hendrix and or jim morrison had a white lighter on their person when their bodies were found? i think that is the rumor part of this myth that i have heard..

i know a lot of people who refuse to touch red lighters. i just think since there are relatively few colors of bics ( the clear color plastic lighters are pieces of shit and break easy as fuck so i never use them cursed or not) there is a higher chance of you doing somethin stupid with the same color multiple times. ive never heard someone say they think a zodiac lighter or any other besides a solid color bic.
as far as pieces go i dont care what you name it just never rest it on your lap. seen many a bowl smash when people stand up

YES!! i totally follow the white lighter superstition.
i use black lighters becuase in my opinion they're lucky. (never been caught... or anything while using a black lighter)

i'ts funny... my friends n i follow this to the point that one day there was a white lighter laying around while we were tokin it up... and one of my friends sees it.. picks it up. and THROWS IT screaming "fuck the white lighter!"

it caused rolling laughter for quite a while..

You guys are funny. I've never, ever, heard of anyone being superstituous over the color of lighters. If this is true with you all, then maybe we should be creating and marketing really cool looking marijuana matches - guranteed to bring only good luck ??

"The real history to the white lighter myth and why they are unlucky is based on four famous and revolutionary musicians of the second half of the 20th century. Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrex, Janis Joplin, and Kurt Cobain were all left-handed, all died at the age of 27, and all their autopsies reported that a white bic lighter was found in their pockets. This is why it is said that white lighters are unlucky. So if you are 27 and left-handed, don’t use a white bic lighter, you will die.
The white lighter myth is often related to smoking marijuana with a white bic lighter."
